  • LANGUAGES of INDIA WHITE PAPER Languages of India I
    LANGUAGES OF INDIA WHITE PAPER Languages of India i About Andovar Andovar is a global provider of multilingual content solutions. Our services range from text translation and content creation, through audio and video recording, to turnkey localization of websites, software, eLearning and games. Our headquarters is in Singapore, and offices in Thailand, Colombia, USA and India. About This White Paper Andovar opened an office in Kolkata in 2014 to better serve our international clients and to add Indian language translation and audio recording to our suite of services. This white paper is an attempt to understand the localization situation when it comes to the major languages spoken in India. This has proven to be a challenging task. Not only are there dozens of languages and over ten scripts in everyday use in India, but it is also a rapidly developing country, with a huge and growing economy and new intiatives related to languages, encoding and translation technology support appear almost monthly. Not much has been written to date to give a holistic overview of the localization landscape and hopefully this white paper will be a useful reference to language professionals, even if it is far from perfect. As such, there may be mistakes or missing information which will be added in future updates. Please contact [email protected] with any questions or suggestions. The data on number or speakers and native speakers of Indian languages is unreliable, with different sources following different conventions when deciding what is a language and what is merely a dialect*. Our first source is the Indian Census from 2001 (www.censusindia.gov.in/Census_Data_2001/), which provided comprehensive information about the whole country, but is now outdated.

Identification of script from document images is an active area of research under document image processing for a multilingual/ multiscript country like India. In this paper the real life problem of printed script identification from official Indian document images is considered and performances of different well-known classifiers are evaluated. Two important evaluating parameters, namely, AAR (average accuracy rate) and MBT (model building time), are computed for this performance analysis. Experiment was carried out on 459 printed document images with 5-fold cross-validation. Simple Logistic model shows highest AAR of 98.9% among all. BayesNet and Random Forest model have average accuracy rate of 96.7% and 98.2% correspondingly with lowest MBT of 0.09 s.

  • Jammu and Kashmir, Part 2 by Winthrop S
    From the Stamp Specialist: Jammu and Kashmir, Part 2 By Winthrop S. Boggs (From The Stamp Specialist Blue Book, #6, published in 1941, with new images) Continuing where we left off last month the last group of these stamps, the [Jammu & Kashmir} New Rectangu- lars, afford a most interesting field to those with limited budgets, but who enjoy plating, paper varieties, etc. The catalog should have a notation above #74 and #103, that the impres- sions are in ordinary printers ink, not oil or watercolor. Otherwise the listing is fairly correct. There is, however, no real distinction between #91 and #106, since the colors shade into each other. Again the early printings of #103 had Jammu & Kashmir, turmeric in them (which stains every- New Rectangular, 8 thing it comes in contact with), so that anna, Sc. 96 #126 is merely an early printing of #111. Continuing, #118, 124, O8, and O15, were never issued for use, such cancelled copies that are known being cancelled to order. #122 doesn’t exist, and #123 should be headed, “Printed in watercolor,” as that is the only way it is known on this paper. Watercolor printings of this stamp are also known on thin wove paper, and should be listed as #112b. These later rectangular issues fall into three distinct groups, viz: Issues of 1878-82, #74 to #102 . Issues of 1883-94, #103 to #123. Official Issues of 1878-94, # O1 to O20. Since all of these stamps were produced from one se- ries of plates the arrangement of these plates requires consideration.

    ISO/IEC JTC1/SC2/WG2 N3758 L2/09-424 2009-12-31 Proposal to Encode the Takri Script in ISO/IEC 10646 Anshuman Pandey University of Michigan Ann Arbor, Michigan, U.S.A. [email protected] December 31, 2009 1 Purpose This is a proposal (N3758 L2/09-424) to encode the Takri script in the Universal Character Set (ISO/IEC 10646). It document replaces the following documents: • L2/09-111 “Proposal to Encode the Takri Script in ISO/IEC 10646” (April 2009) • L2/07-419 “Proposal to Encode the Takri Script in ISO/IEC 10646” (December 2007) 2 Introduction Takri is the name given to the popular script used in the region of South Asia that comprises present-day Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Panjab, and Uttarakhand (see Figure 1). It is the traditional writing system for Chambeali, Dogri, and several ‘Pahari’ languages, such as Jaunsari, Kulvi, and Mandeali. The name Takri appears in English sources as ’Takari’, ‘Takkari’, and ‘Tankri’, with other variations. This mul- tiplicity of names arises from uncertain etymologies for ‘Takri’. One source holds that Takri is derived from ‘ṭaṅkā’ ‘coin’, which suggests that the script originated as a commercial script.1 Another source connects the name Takri to ‘ṭakka’, a name referring to the old landed class of Punjab, or Takri being “the alphabet of the Ṭakkas”, 2 Despite the uncertain etymology, the script is commonly known as ‘Ṭākarī’, and the normalized spelling of ‘Takri’ is suggested as its name in the Universal Character Set (UCS). Takri belongs to the Sharada family of Brahmi scripts and is related to Gurmukhi and Landa.
